Now in his mid-60s, Peter reflects on a life jam-packed with colourful characters, career moves (some undeniably questionable), boisterous family gatherings and boardroom lessons.

In a world flooded with information but starved for meaning, Mind to Think offers a bold and urgent message: we must teach ourselves and our children not just what to think, but how to think.

As humans who teach, there is so much that we want for our students and for ourselves. We want to make our classrooms welcoming and equitable places for students, and we want to lead lives full of peace, love, and joy. However, the ways in which we have been socialized can hold us back. In Humans Who Teach: A Guide for Centering Love, Justice, and Liberation in Schools, Shamari Reid lays out a path for working toward liberation for our students and for ourselves by honoring our own humanity and choosing love over fear.

Dit hoorcollege gaat over kernvragen van het menselijk bestaan en over het raadsel dat we zo vaak voor onszelf zijn. Het gaat over hoe we ons gedragen, individueel maar ook in groepsverband. Het gaat over onze complexiteit, onze morele dilemma's, onze tegenstrijdigheden, onze grootsheid en onze misère. Wat hebben we nodig voor een gelukkig leven? En wat te doen als we twee onverenigbare doelen tegelijk op het oog hebben? Die doelen kunnen moreel neutraal zijn, maar ze kunnen ook raken aan normen waar we ons aan te houden hebben, of aan waarden waar we in geloven.

In Organizational Betrayal, educational researcher Charol Shakeshaft advocates a system-wide approach for safeguarding K–12 students against educator sexual misconduct. Based on decades of inquiry into cases of student abuse in educational systems, the work reveals that sexual abuse of children in US K–12 schools is more prevalent than we'd like to believe. Examining the root causes and contexts, Shakeshaft concludes that school cultures and institutional structures are often complicit in cases of sexual misconduct.

Every year, millions of public school students are suspended. This overused punishment removes students from the classroom, but it does not improve their behavior. Instead, suspension disrupts their education, harming the students, their families, and their schools.

Many activists and scholars have considered how school punishment increases racial inequity, but few have thought to ask why.
